The major problem for an OPS network is the contention of optical packets and the lack of optical buffering for resolving this contention. So far, many researchers and scientists have proposed practical solutions to overcome the problem of OPS networks; however this is the first book that collects all the techniques and studies them in depth.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFocusing on the system level of OPS and quality of service (QoS) provisioning, the book covers:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eAn introduction to OPS networks, OOFDM networks, GMPLS-enabled optical networks, QoS in OPS networks\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTechniques that either avoid contention, or resolve contention, or both, in a hybrid manner in both long-haul and metro OPS networks\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMethods by which an OPS network can be used in parallel with other optical switching  mechanisms\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe most recent methods suitable for metro OPS networks\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eWritten by an expert in the field of OPS networking, this book provides a comprehensive study on the protocols and techniques developed for improving the operation of OPS.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley-IEEE Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47989894676709,"sku":"NP9781118891186","price":144.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9781118891186.jpg?v=1761785825","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/quality-of-service-in-optical-packet-switched-networks-isbn-9781118891186","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
